    Is it going to be a pain in the petutie – yours or mine – to make the sidebar a little wider?

    The reason I ask is, I have a long domain name, and the email address doesn’t fit.

    So I either have to go get a different domain, create CSS to make the typeface smaller or put the address somewhere else on the site and other than the Hours & Contact widget.

    You can use the CSS word-wrap property to have the email address break onto the next line. That might be easier than changing the widths.

    Yes, I could, and it would be easier, but it looks naff – so I guess, as I said, its either go get a shorter domain name (for email at least), create CSS to make the typeface smaller, or put the address somewhere else on the site and other than the Hours & Contact widget.

    All of which are sub-optimal.

    I have plenty of real estate on the page and I only need to increase the size of the sidebar by just 20px. That’s what I want/need to do.

    Any advice/help you can send in my direction?

    You can make it wider by pasting this into the box for custom css on the styling tab in the theme options page:

    aside.sidebar { width: 200px; }

    Be sure to choose “yes” at the top in the drop down for “Include custom styling in your site.”

    Well, that was a totally painless solution! Thank you Bill.
